Does this really make them more valuable

Oh no you did-hint!

Yeah, I agree with jmon, you didn't get crushed and you got slabbed coins for cheap, granted they are just MS slabbed coins, not proofs, which would have been better, but the price seems fine. I'm sure you could flip the ANACS coin and maybe make a profit soon (esp. if silver keeps climbing) then go get more NGC slabs if that's what you like better.

 

Crushed may have been a bad choice of words. I guess if it was you how would you have felt about the transaction? I was mad at myself and myself only. I paid them right away and they are on their way. If I can flip them and get some proofs and they help lower my cost, I will be happy and thankful.

 

I would have personally just felt dumb and kicked myself for not reading the details fully and bidding too quickly. At least you are not burned by bad coins or a shady dealer as you mentioned you seemed to feel they were worth buying from. I would just live and learn and do my best to correct this bidding mistake in a determined fashion, flipping when possible.

 

They are not shady, IMO. The listing was clear, I was the one that did not read it. In all fairness I am not really disappointed in the deal, just mad at myself for not paying better attention.
